Pretty fun! I'd also like a slightly bigger hitbox with the chickens. Good job!

Thank you!

Pretty hectic game. It kinda reminds me of Chicken for Wowie Jam 2. Only point of critique is that new chickens appear out of thin air. Perhaps the aliens could also play a role in that.

Developer

That’s a good idea! Thank you for the feedback!

:) chicken games for the win :)

You can never go wrong with chickens!

I love the style! I also like how the aliens are helping in this case, where as usually an alien abduction would be a bad thing. Had fun with this one!

Developer

Thank you so much! The aliens come in peace!

how did you end up in a chicken game this is great lmfao you have almost the same game concept  as us!

Submitted(+1)

What a fun, frantic experience. I liked the presentation!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! My goal was to make it as visually appealing as I could!

Submitted(+1)

Haha that premise is pretty rad! Well made game, good stuff :)

Developer

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

Gets chaotic very quickly :D

I wish there was a way to know how long a chicken has until abduction, unless that's part of the design, of course ^^

Developer

I would have liked to implement that, but time was not on my side! Thank you for playing!

Really cool, nicely designed and works well. Would make a good mobile game.

Developer

Thank you so much! It’s playable in the browser on mobile if you want to try that!

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed! I haven't, but I would like to!

Developer

Thank you so much!

Submitted(+1)

aww the poor chickens ;w;;

great job!

Developer(+1)

The chickens will never learn! Thank you for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Really neat little game! It would be cool to see a bit more randomness added to the chicken movement in a future build. It reminds me of a Mario Party minigame. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing!

Submitted(+1)

No problem! Would love your feedback on our game as well. SpaceBus

Simple and fun!

I like the idea that the aliens "save" the chickens :D

This game is perfect to port to mobile to make a time waster while on public transit / bathroom :)

If you had the time I would love it if you tried my game and rated it. Its called Drone.

Developer

Thank you! The aliens only want to help :D You're actually able to play on mobile in the browser, although you have to decrease the size of the page. It's also quite difficult to play on a small phone!

Submitted(+1)

A cute (the art, not what's happening!) little timewaster. Jeez are these chickens lemmings. ^^

How did you decide on *Ufos* of all things?

Developer

Thank you! I actually spent a few hours drawing up a completely different idea, and ended up scrapping it. I didn't end up writing down a single thing for this idea! I just started working and let it flow naturally, and I personally think it ended up being silly and fun because of it!

Submitted(+1)

Can confirm that it did indeed end up silly and fun with it, so it was a good choice :D

Submitted(+1)

Very cool game with a pretty crazy concept. It is much more strategic than it looks. The game is also very hard atleast for me. Once I saw that chickens don't change direction I started to get better points, but still my max was 49 and I would have to really tryhard to get it higher. I really enjoyed playing this one, to the point that I almost left for work too late, but the difficulty is too high for my personal liking. Also if we could get some sort of feedback that the Chicken is soon to be taken by aliens, that would make the game much more strategic than pure reflex, but that's jus my personal opinion.
Good job :)

Developer

Thank you for all of the kind words! I hope you got to work okay! I do wish I tweaked the difficulty a bit, and I wanted to add more visual cues such as bars above the chicken or hearts for how many lives you had, but time wasn't on my side! Nonetheless, I'm so glad you enjoyed!

Submitted(+1)

Nice simple game loop. Easy concept, lots of fun!

Developer

I'm glad you had fun! Thank you for playing!
